9-Borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane or 9-BBN is an organoborane compound and used in organic chemistry as a hydroboration reagent. It can be prepared from 1,5-cyclooctadiene and a borane-dimethyl sulfide complex, using dimethoxyethane as the reaction solvent Simple, remarkably efficient route to high purity, crystalline 9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (9-BBN) dimer John A. Soderquist, Herbert C. Brown; J. Org. Chem.; 1981; 46(22); 4599-4600. [Abstract] . 9-BBN is more stable than other boranes in the pure state, this is due to the formation of hydride-bridged dimers in the solid state. The compound is commercially available as a solution in THF, and as a solid. 9-BBN is especially useful in Suzuki reactions.
